SUNSHINE, INNER WEST MELBOURNE - SMALL ANIMAL

Melbourne Inner West – 2 Vet FTE Family Friendly Small Animal Practice

Are you an experienced veterinarian who enjoys a mix of surgery and consults, a love for building lasting client relationships, and a desire to mentor and grow? Are you also looking for a family friendly clinic? Look no further – we have the perfect opportunity for you!

About Us:

Nestled in the heart of Melbourne's vibrant inner western suburbs, our vet clinic may not boast flashy exteriors, but step inside, and you'll discover a warm, family friendly clinic, that prioritises patient care and learning and development. We are a supportive team who love discussing cases and bouncing ideas off each other.

Please click here to see photos!

At our clinic, we don't just offer a job; we offer a career path filled with opportunities for growth and development. We believe in investing in our team members, and that's why we're committed to sending you to top-notch courses, conferences, and other exciting learning experiences to help you reach your full potential.

You’ll also have access to VIN, CVE membership and more.

Family Friendly:

Getting the balance between family, work and fun can be a challenge. As a mum of 2 small children, I have created a clinic that welcomes parents and understands that time off for those inconveniently timed mothers/fathers/special person’s days, school interviews, events, etc are important to attend.

Does your child’s school ever forget to notify you of student free days? Mine does! That’s why you’ll sometimes see kids in the clinic during business hours. Thankfully we have a separate breakout space/office upstairs, with a TV, snacks and 2 cats where older kids can hang out.

We also offer a paid parental leave package in addition to the government contribution.

If this sounds like a place for you, please reach out to me, Noriel, on 0422762442 or email nwilliams@cosypawsvet.com.au.

Here’s the lowdown:

Part-Time or Full-Time – You tell us what works for you!

We always put our patients' health and wellbeing first. We take the time to partner with our clients, helping them make informed decisions about their pet’s health—even if that means referrals or bringing in a mobile specialist (we have a great working relationship with external specialists including surgeons, internal med and radiology for second opinions and procedures such as in house CT)
Dedicated 1-hour lunch breaks in our cozy staff lounge – no skipping meals here!
We provide you with allocated times during the schedule to do your work ups and write histories
We’re proudly not corporate – which means no micromanaging and the freedom to practice in a way that makes you feel comfortable.

We also have a coffee machine, a snack drawer, and a love for "free dress Fridays" – because we like to have FUN at work!
Close to Heathmont Train Station, local cafes and shops

We also provide a clinic CVE (Centre for Veterinary Education) and VIN license.
